Arrest documentation stated that Woodward had planned on meeting a child, and went so far as to promise candy as part of the potential sexual liaison.

Woodward's banned date is listed as March 7, 2012. Members of the banned list are given a 30-day appeal period before being added to the public version of the banned list. Woodward's appeal period is complete, and USA Swimming has now added him to the publicly-available list on its website.

Upon word of his arrest, USA Swimming had originally suspended Woodward provisionally until a full review process could be met before adding him to the public list.
